Sherrifs straddle the line between law enforcement and politician, and their positions often have questionable accountability protocols.
However they are 100% subject to local, state, and federal laws if investigated and charged by any of those bodies.
If the state and feds are also corrupt locals?
Then you get scum like Joe Arpiao.
